Large Laurel hedge

[Starscream]

I've got a long laurel to reduce soon. Was just gonna chuck it in the back of the transit... Windows down on the way to the tip site then yeah!?!?!

Unless your a bee in a jar I wouldn't worry about it.

 

i reckon more people die from fish fingers every year than laurel hedges. Just a guess.

Whereabouts in the country are you? I'd take the logs & brash

[Starscream]

The jobs in Orpington Kent. I'm doing it on the 17th. There won't be any logs, I'm reducing the width.

Why would you put fish fingers through the chipper, potatoes yes ?

We used to do a few Laurel hedges when I was a lad on the council gardens and we just used to take the stuff back to the depot and dump it on a heap to degrade. That was in the olden days when you could still burn stuff though. Nobody ever suffered any ill effects that I can remember.

Perhaps give the logs to someone you don't like?

At this rate I should of died years ago !!!

Interestingly, or not, laurel leaves were steeped in water to produce a cheap almond essence substitute. At least one death is recorded where it was drunk in concentrate instead of as a cordial, IIRC within a few hours.

 

I did some research as a neighbour was complaining that their neighbours laurel hedge was a threat to the fish in the pond. I suspect that our cats were actually more of a threat - but that's another story entirely.
